Red Chief, a character from O. Henry's short story "The Ransom of Red Chief," threatened to scalp his captors, Sam and Bill, after they kidnapped him for ransom. Despite their intentions to hold him for money, the boy's wild and mischievous behavior turns the situation upside down, leading to comedic chaos. His threats, rather than instilling fear, highlight his playful and rebellious nature, ultimately complicating the kidnappers' plans.
